Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined have the meanings ascribed to them in the Voting Agreement. A copy of the Voting Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit A and is incorporated herein by reference in response to this Item 6.

 

Pursuant to Section 4.1 of the Voting Agreement, each of Moore Holdings, Remington and MGI has agreed, during the Voting Period, to vote all of its Shares: (a) in favor of the Parent Share Issuance; (b) in favor of adoption of any proposal in respect of which the Issuer’s Board of Directors has (i) determined is designed to facilitate the consummation of the Amalgamation, (ii) disclosed the determination described in clause (i) in the Issuer’s proxy materials or other written materials disseminated to all of the shareholders of the Issuer and (iii) recommended to be adopted by the shareholders of the Issuer; (c) against any Takeover Proposal; and (d) against any amendments to the memorandum of association or by-laws of the Issuer or other proposal or transaction involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries that in any manner would reasonably be expected to materially impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or adversely affect the Amalgamation or the other transactions contemplated by the Plan of Amalgamation or change, in any manner, the voting rights of any class of capital stock of the Issuer.

 

Pursuant to Section 4.2 of the Voting Agreement, each of Moore Holdings, Remington and MGI has granted to and appointed Harbor Point and up to two designated representatives of Harbor Point as such shareholder’s proxy to attend all meetings of the shareholders of the Issuer and to vote the Shares at any meeting of the shareholders of the Issuer or in any action by written consent of the shareholders of the Issuer, during the Voting Period, solely on the matters and in the manner specified in Section 4.1 of the Voting Agreement.

 

The Voting Agreement and the obligations thereunder shall automatically terminate on the first to occur of (a) the termination of the Plan of Amalgamation in accordance with its terms, (b) a written agreement between Harbor Point and a shareholder to terminate the Voting Agreement (provided that in the case of this clause (b) any such termination shall be effective only with respect to such shareholder or shareholders party to such agreement to terminate), (c) the Effective Time and (d) the Plan of Amalgamation is amended to increase the Consideration to be paid to the shareholders of Harbor Point in connection with the Amalgamation.

Except as provided in Section 3.1 of this Agreement, the Company acknowledges and agrees that Transferrable Shares shall not be deemed “Shares” for purposes of this Agreement.

Such Shareholder has the sole power to vote or cause to be voted Parent Common Shares and any other securities convertible into or exercisable for any Parent Common Shares set forth opposite the name of such Shareholder on Schedule A attached hereto on the matters specified in Section 4.1 hereof, free and clear of any and all claims, liens, encumbrances or restrictions on the right to vote such Shares, except (a) as may exist by reason of this Agreement, (b) pursuant to applicable Law or (c) as referenced in Section 3.4 hereof. In furtherance (and not in limitation) of the foregoing, such Shareholder represents and warrants to the Company that all proxies heretofore given in respect of any of its Shares, if any, are not irrevocable and that all such proxies have been properly revoked or are no longer in effect as of the date hereof.

                 SECTION 3.     Additional Agreements.

3.1       Restriction on Transfer. Subject to applicable Law, each Shareholder hereby covenants and agrees, that during the Voting Period, except as otherwise specifically contemplated or permitted by this Agreement or the Plan of Amalgamation, such Shareholder shall not, and shall not offer or agree to, (a) directly or indirectly, sell (including any short sale), transfer, tender, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise dispose of, (b) grant any proxy or power of attorney with respect to, deposit into a voting trust or enter into a voting arrangement, whether by proxy, voting agreement or otherwise with respect to or (c) enter into any contract, option, derivative, hedging or other agreement or arrangement or understanding (including any profit or loss-sharing arrangement) with respect to or related to, any Shares or any interest therein or any of the other securities convertible into or exercisable for any Parent Common Shares set forth on Schedule A attached hereto (each of the foregoing, a “Transfer”); provided, however, that any Shareholder may make a Transfer to any Affiliate of such Shareholder (a “Permitted Transfer”); provided that the effectiveness of a Permitted Transfer shall be conditioned on the transferee executing an agreement (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company) to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement for the benefit of the Company and that there shall be no further Transfers except in accordance with this Agreement; provided, further, that no Permitted Transfer shall relieve the transferring Shareholder from any liability for any breach of its representations, warranties, agreements and obligations hereunder occurring prior to such Permitted Transfer. In addition and without the prior consent of the Company, Moore Holdings shall be permitted to Transfer the Transferrable Shares to its members, and for purposes of clarity, upon such transfer the Transferrable Shares shall no longer be subject to this Agreement. To the extent that any such Transferrable Shares have not been so Transferred prior to the initial record date for the Parent Shareholder Meeting (the “Specified Transferrable Shares”), the Specified Transferrable Shares shall be deemed to be, and shall be treated as, “Shares” for all purposes of this Agreement and the effectiveness of any Transfer of Specified Transferrable Shares shall be conditioned on the transferee executing an agreement (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company) to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement for the benefit of the Company and that there shall be no further Transfers except in accordance with this Agreement.

3.2       Additional Shares. In the event of a share dividend or distribution, or any change in the Parent Common Shares by reason of any share dividend or distribution, split-up, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, conversion or the like, including the exchange of any securities convertible into or exercisable for any Parent Common Shares, the term “Shares” shall be deemed to refer to and include such shares as well as all such share dividends and distributions and any securities into which or for which any or all of the Shares may be changed or exchanged or which are received in such transaction. For the avoidance of doubt, it is the intent of the parties that all Parent Common Shares or other securities convertible into or exercisable for any Parent Common Shares acquired by each Shareholder after the date hereof through the Voting Period be subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

3.3       Non-Solicitation. During the Voting Period, each Shareholder shall, and shall use reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives to, comply with the covenants set forth in Section 5.4(a) of the Plan of Amalgamation applicable to Parent as if such covenants were applicable to such Shareholder.

3.4       Company Acknowledgment. The Company acknowledges and agrees that (a) the voting power otherwise conferred by the Shares under bye-law 51 of Parent’s bye-laws may be adjusted pursuant to bye-law 52 of the Company’s bye-laws with respect to any vote on the matters specified in Section 4.1 hereof (a “Voting Power Adjustment”), (b) nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit, limit, affect, modify, interpret or otherwise influence any determination made by Parent with respect to a Voting Power Adjustment and (c) if a Voting Power Adjustment is made with respect to a Shareholder’s Shares, such Voting Power Adjustment shall not form the basis for any breach or violation by such Shareholder of this Agreement. Each Shareholder covenants and agrees that it shall promptly respond to any request of Parent’s Board of Directors for information in the manner specified in bye-law 52 of Parent bye-laws.

                SECTION 4.      Voting Agreement; Proxy.

4.1       Voting Agreement. Each Shareholder hereby agrees that during the Voting Period, at any meeting of the shareholders of Parent or in any action by written consent of the shareholders of Parent, such Shareholder shall vote (or cause to be voted) all of its Shares:

 


Page 11 of 19 pages

 

 

                                                (a)        in favor of the Parent Share Issuance;

(b)        in favor of adoption of any proposal in respect of which Parent’s Board of Directors has (i) determined is designed to facilitate the consummation of the Amalgamation, (ii) disclosed the determination described in clause (i) in Parent’s proxy materials or other written materials disseminated to all of the shareholders of Parent and (iii) recommended to be adopted by the shareholders of Parent;

(c)          against any Takeover Proposal; and

(d)        against any amendments to the memorandum of association or bye-laws of Parent or other proposal or transaction involving Parent or any of its Subsidiaries that in any manner would reasonably be expected to materially impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or adversely affect the Amalgamation or the other transactions contemplated by the Plan of Amalgamation or change, in any manner, the voting rights of any class of capital stock of Parent;

provided that in the event that such Shareholder’s proxy has been granted to Parent pursuant to Section 4.2 (and such proxy remains effective in accordance therewith), Shareholder shall have no obligations under this Section 4.1 with respect to the meeting of the shareholders of Parent for which such proxy has been granted.

                                4.2           Grant of Proxy.

(a)        In furtherance of Section 4.1 of this Agreement, subject to Section 4.2(b) hereof and the proviso set forth below, each Shareholder hereby irrevocably grants to and appoints the Company and up to two of the Company’s designated representatives (the “Authorized Parties”), and each of them individually, as such Shareholder’s proxy (with full power of substitution and resubstitution) for and in the name, place and stead of such Shareholder, to attend all meetings of the shareholders of Parent and to vote the Shares at any meeting of the shareholders of Parent or in any action by written consent of the shareholders of Parent, during the Voting Period solely on the matters and in the manner specified in Section 4.1 hereof, in each case subject to applicable Law (the “Proxy”); provided that in the case of any meeting of the shareholders of Parent during the Voting Period at which a matter described in Section 4.1 is to be considered, such Shareholder’s grant of the Proxy contemplated by this Section 4.2(a) shall be effective if, and only if, such Shareholder has not delivered to the Secretary of Parent at least three Business Days prior to such meeting a duly executed proxy card previously approved by the Company (such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) voting such Shareholder’s Shares in the manner specified in Section 4.1. For the avoidance of doubt, the Proxy shall be effective for all actions by written consent of the shareholders of Parent during the Voting Period with respect to the matters set forth in Section 4.1.

(b)        It is hereby agreed that the Authorized Parties will use any Proxy granted by any Shareholder solely in accordance with applicable Law and will only vote the Shares subject to such Proxy with respect to the matters and in the manner specified in Section 4.1 hereof. Subject to the foregoing sentence, following the grant of a Proxy pursuant to Section 4.2(a), the vote of an Authorized Party shall control in any conflict between the vote by an Authorized Party of such Shares and any other vote by such Shareholder of its Shares during the Voting Period.

(c)        Each Shareholder hereby affirms that any Proxy granted pursuant to this Section 4.2 is given by such Shareholder in connection with, and in consideration of, the execution of the Plan of Amalgamation by the Company, and that any such Proxy will be given to secure the performance of the duties of such Shareholder under this Agreement.

(d)        Any Proxy granted pursuant to this Section 4.2 by such Shareholder shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable proxy and shall revoke any and all prior proxies granted by such Shareholder. Any Proxy granted hereunder shall terminate, and any underlying appointment shall automatically be revoked and rescinded and of no force and effect, upon the termination of this Agreement.

(e)        Each Shareholder hereby acknowledges that Parent has agreed, pursuant to Section 5.1 of the Plan of Amalgamation, to recognize the Proxy at any meeting of the shareholders of Parent during the Voting Period. Each Shareholder hereby further agrees that it will not intentionally take any action or fail to take any action with the primary purpose of causing Parent to fail to recognize such Proxy.

                                4.3           Other Voting. Each Shareholder shall vote on all issues other than those specified in Section 4.1 hereof

that may come before a meeting of, or action by written consent by, the shareholders of Parent in its sole discretion; provided that such vote or consent does not contravene the provisions of this Section 4. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not have the right to be granted any proxy of a Shareholder in connection with any such vote.

SECTION 5.      Further Assurances. Each Shareholder shall, from time to time, perform such further acts and execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such additional or further consents, documents and other instruments as the Company may reasonably request in writing for the purpose of effectuating the matters covered by this Agreement or that are necessary to vest in the Company the power to carry out and give effect to the provisions of this Agreement.

SECTION 6.      Termination. This Agreement and the obligations hereunder shall automatically terminate on the first to occur of (a) the termination of the Plan of Amalgamation in accordance with its terms, (b) a written agreement between the Company and a Shareholder to terminate this Agreement (provided that in the case of this clause (b) any such termination shall be effective only with respect to such Shareholder or Shareholders party to such agreement to terminate, and not any other shareholder of Parent party to this Agreement or a similar agreement with the Company), (c) the Effective Time and (d) in the case of any Shareholder who is not a director of Parent and who is not identified onSchedule A attached hereto as having a designee on Parent’s Board of Directors, the Plan of Amalgamation is amended to increase the Consideration to be paid to the shareholders of the Company in connection with the Amalgamation. The representations, warranties, obligations and agreements of the parties contained in this Agreement shall not survive any termination of this Agreement; provided that in the event this Agreement is terminated under clause (a) of the preceding sentence, no party shall be relieved from its liability for any willful and material breach of its obligations hereunder committed prior to such termination. For the avoidance of doubt, the Voting Period will automatically end when this Agreement is terminated in accordance with this Section 6.

               SECTION 7.        Miscellaneous.

7.1       Publication. Each Shareholder hereby permits Parent and the Company to publish and disclose in any proxy statement or prospectus (including any document or schedule filed with the SEC) or any other regulatory filings in connection with the Plan of Amalgamation such Shareholder’s identity and ownership of Parent Common Shares, the other information set forth on Schedule A attached hereto, and the nature of its commitments, arrangements and understandings pursuant to this Agreement.
